Eric did a great job of preaching the word on Sunday. He really tells it like it is. Take a listen to his message for Easter Sunday.

Easter Sunday 2012

Promise In The Nails

Jesus was nailed on the cross for you. What is the promise for us in those nails?

Promise In The Nails

He Chose The Nails: The Crown Of Thorns

We are starting a new series from Max Lucado's book "He Chose The Nails" that will lead us up to Easter. We often look at the cross and the tomb, and even the words said from the cross, but what about the objects that made up that event. We will in the next few weeks look at the crown of thorns, the nails, the path, the other two crosses, and many other items that were a part of that great event in history. Come along with us and see what God is saying to you this Easter season.

What Is A Disciple

What Is A Disciple? If we are going to reach the world with Jesus, we have to be disciples first.

How? Our Mission

We have had this mission statement for years...We exist to Love God, Love People, and bring the two together. That is all about relationships. So what does that look like? We want to create relational enviornments where we can...love God, love people, and bring them together. That's what God wants from us.

How? Our mission.

Reaching The World With Jesus One Person At A Time: God's Vision...Our Vision?

Beginning a new series "Reaching The World With Jesus One Person At A Time." Our leaders and I went to a conference (Immersion I) where we participated in small groups and saw what life can be like as we live life together discipling one another in small groups. We took that and are currently implementing this process within our church. The one core value that we as a church have always voiced but have difficulty putting into practice is that we believe we are to be disciples of Jesus and that we should be "making disciples" just as the great commission says. So this series is going to explore how we might do that better...and it begins with knowing what exactly our vision is and does that line up with what Jesus asked us to be and do?

God's Vision...Our Vision?

Sermon number 4 in the six week series...


The Comfortable Cross

Not A Fan: Fan or Follower

New series begins this week from the book by Kyle Idleman called "not a fan." We are doing a six week series and study from the book on Wed. nights. If you are in the area, it is still not too late to join in the study. Kyle asks some hard questions, just like Jesus did. Jesus drew the line in the sand many times and ask people to be followers instead of just fans. Which are you?

Fan Or Follower

Let Jesus Lead

Eric Owens kicked off our year with a great message about letting Jesus lead your life in everything.

Let Jesus Lead

Greater Things Yet To Come

Our student minister Eric Owens brought our message this week. God has so much in store for us as a body of believers here in Rincon, and for each of you wherever God has placed you. Are you willing and available? Are you ready to accept all that Jesus has done for you?

Greater Things Yet To Come

Only God Can Do The Cleaning

Last in our You Catch'em He'll Clean'em series. We all have to recongize that only God can clean up our broken and dirty lives...to make us each clean...washed by the blood of Jesus. A simple fact, but hard to allow in ourselves.

Only God Can Do The Cleaning

Present The Bait

This week we talked about going fishing. If you are going to be a fisher of men, you must know how to present your bait. See how Jesus accomplished this as we continue to look at being fishers of men.

Present The Bait

Sorry...More technical difficulties

To all of our loyal followers...

We have had some trouble with out audio equipment the last few weeks so our recordings have not come out properly. The last three weeks messages did not record so obviously have not been able to post them. Sorry for the inconvenience. We have had a great month of worship. We have had three baptisms and two came to be prayed for and desire a closer relationship with Jesus. God is changing lives at RFCC.

Two weeks ago I spoke about surrendering from the viewpoint of the boy with the 5 loaves and two fish. Then we had a missionary speaker, Mark Begarly who spoke about the power of God. This last Sunday we looked at fish that need to "return" to Jesus, just like Peter did after he had denied Christ...he returned to Jesus on the beach. Jesus came looking for him, and Peter responded. What about you? If you have been away from Jesus, maybe it is time for you to return again.

That's a quick update...looking to a great November.

You Catch'em, He'll Clean'em: "Running"

Maybe you find yourself "Running" like Jonah.

"Running"

You Catch'em, He'll Clean'em: "Searching"

This is the first sermon of our new series. I'm sure you have heard many sermons on how we as Christians are called to be "fishers of men." That is what Christ calls us to. I want to take a look this month at the "fish." We are all fish and need to be caught by Christ. When we are caught, he cleans us. So we begin with looking at the idea of "Searching." Are you a searching fish? Are you looking for something but don't know what it might be? So was the Ethiopian Eunuch. Let's take a look at what we can learn from this fish who had a desire to be caught.

"Searching"

Saturated With The Son

What fills your heart will lead your life. Just like a sponge. What does that have anything to do with anything you are thinking? If you fill a sponge with water and give it a squeeze, what is going to come out? Milk? Orange Juice? Chocolate? As much as we might like it, no. If you fill a sponge with water and squeeze...water comes out. What comes out of you when you are "squeezed?" If you are Saturated with Jesus...Jesus comes out. Has to...because that is what you are filled with. Take a listen and explore what being Saturated with the Son means for you.

Saturated With The Son.

Saturated With Truth

What does being saturated with the truth look like? I believe many of us really don't want to know the truth...yet alone live by the truth. How would your life change if you were saturated with truth.
